What a match tonight! I rarely feel happy for 'other' fans but those Spurs supporters will be dancing, high on a heady mix of unbridled joy and incredible relief, long into the night. They've won nothing yet but I doubt they care at all.
Good on Arsene Wenger for sticking with with his Carling Cup side. They were brutally outclassed by the Tottenham first XI tonight; Spurs clearly wanted it more and were prepared to shed blood for it. I'm hoping the Tottenham team now go on some kind of Ferdinandesque 48 hour bender before hitch-hiking throughout Friday night, reaching the Devilbowl just in time for a good old-fashioned FA Cup drubbing. Watching Ramos remain the colour and texture of Aberdonian granite amidst tonight's wildly jubilant scenes I feel this is unlikely.
Judging by the alarming number of BBC broadcasters claiming allegiance to White Hart lane we might expect a series of upbeat morning newscasts in spite of the crashing avalanche of share prices beamed live from the floor of the Stock Exchange. Watch out for the occasional oddity in the sports bulletins, such as
Pat Rice, Frank Stapleton, Tony Adams, Charlie George, Clive Anderson, Tom Watt, Alan Davis, Rory McGrath can you hear me? Rory McGrath can you hear me? Your (young) boys took one hell of a beating!
